At Kakiat After Early Morning Snow

Kakiat County ParkRockland Co.,New York

We had gotten several inches of fresh, wet snow overnight, which clung to all the trees and looked incredibly surreal. On my way to work, in the early morning sunrise, I headed over to Kakiat Park to get a glimpse of the snow in a natural setting with a bright blue sky that just appeared after the snow ended. I didn't really hike; I just walked around the area at the bottom of Kakiat snapping different photo perspectives.
